I'm trying to search for all the HTML input tags with a type of 'text' inside Netbeans 6.9.
Does Netbeans support searching for string using regular expressions with different search criteria spread across multiple lines or does it only work within a single line?
This regular expression
<input.*type=['"]text['"].*/>
works when the entire tag and its attributes are written in a single line like this
<input name="data[something]" id="some_id" value="some_value" type="text" />
But because I avoid writing long lines of code and break them as such
<input name="data[something]" id="some_id"
value="some_value" type="text" />
the same regular expression does not work.
Is there a way this could be achieved?
